Abstract

Since the end of 2021, the Indonesian people have again faced the issue of scarcity and soaring cooking oil prices. The government's efforts to overcome the scarcity of cooking oil production have actually benefited palm oil corporations so that the spike in cooking oil prices will continue until mid-2022 and cooking oil shortages are still being found. This study aims to describe the concept of production, scarcity of production and soaring cooking oil prices in an Islamic economic perspective. To discuss the intended purpose, this study uses the library research method, namely by reviewing the relevant literature both from books, articles and reports. The results showed that the scarcity of cooking oil caused a spike in cooking oil prices in Indonesia. This happens when government policies are not fully in accordance with Islamic economic values. The monopoly activities carried out by palm oil corporations have caused a spike in the price of cooking oil which is very much against the values of goodness. In the view of Islam, the aim of production should be to provide benefit, not hardship to society. Production in the Islamic economy is a collective obligation and the law is fardhu kifayah where producers must produce cooking oil as a basic need in adequate quantities. In Islamic economics, the term scarcity is not known due to limited natural resources, because Allah has guaranteed all human needs on earth. The scarcity of cooking oil that occurs is due to one of them being stockpiled by entrepreneurs or the non-distribution of the cooking oil which has resulted in a spike in the price of cooking oil in Indonesia.

Abstract

In order for Indonesia's 2045 vision to become a sovereign, developed, just and prosperous country, the direction of fiscal policy must be shaped to reflect the dynamics of the economy, respond to challenges and always support sustainability. Therefore, the development of the State Budget as a tool for fiscal policy must be encouraged so that it is healthier in the long run and is able to manage risks so that the allocation, distribution and stabilization functions can be optimized. Of course, the country's economic policy is expected to be in accordance with Islamic principles and values, because the main goal of Islam is the welfare of all mankind. The purpose of this study is to find out how tax policy creates a society based on a balanced distribution of wealth by balancing material and spiritual values. This study uses descriptive methods, data collection techniques are carried out using library technology or other written documents as well as journals, books and other literature. The results of the study show that fiscal policy is a policy that regulates government revenues and expenditures to ensure stability and encourage economic growth. The tools of fiscal policy are government revenues and expenditures. Understanding the Islamic perspective on government spending must be acknowledged. First, government spending can be divided into current spending and capital spending. Second, the objectives of government tax and spending policies are reflected in the redistribution of income, spending on the provision of public services, the production of public goods that cannot be provided by the market, and the provision of infrastructure to increase economic productivity. With all control systems, the advantages of each system must be considered and combined. In a sense, modern taxation accepts ethical ideas and Islamic taxation accepts modern tax theory and applications.
